Please read the following link. It is an article about a recent ruling in Quebec, Canada where a 12 year old girl went to court threatening to sue her father for grounding her - the court ruled in her favour.
What do you think should be the limit when disciplining a child? What ever happened to a good old fashioned grounding or a spanking (NOT a beating)?
If the courts keep taking away parents' options for discipline, who can and should be blamed for a child's behaviour? Surely, not the parents, who are quickly losing control of their choices in discipline.
